Earlier today after a Premier League Football Match the song It's Late was used. I think last year Dragon Attack was used for snooker highlights. I am interested in what unusal choices of Queen songs that have been used for TV (i.e non hits).

All I can say is I went to go see SuckerPunch and it said music was by Queen. So I dragged my boyfriend along so I wouldn't look like an idiot getting excited by myself when a Queen song came on. I was disqusted that when they said 'music by Queen' that it was a remix of We Will Rock You. Just glad it was a half decent movie otherwise I would have walked out after that -.-

This just in .... in the USA on the CNBC national television channel for financial news they have a practice of using popular music to accent segments of their broadcasts - so this morning in light of the mini "Flash-Crash" of the commodities market that has occurred this week they actually used the genuine FLASH vocals to herald the news to the world! So how about that ... some FLASH love this morning in the USA. Bravo CNBC.

i think you need to take things in context..sometimes these "end-credits/montage sequence" tunes are not unusual at all...moreover they are perfect...and posisble the only choice of song... think about it..."it's late" - was it a game where the result was crucial (for the end-of-season run-in) for the loser

and as for "dragon attack" - forget the known song-meaning...take the lyrics on their own...they scream out snooker

Take me to the room where the red's all red Take me out of my head-'s what I said yeah Hey take me to the room where the green's all green And from what I've seen it's hot it's mean

Take me to the room where the black's all white And the white's all black take me back to the shack

Yeah chained to the rack!

TELL ME ...lyrically...how more more "snooker" do you want? this is not an unusual choice!!!!

They actually used Mustapha as an intro to a Falco (remember him? Amadeus) special from 1984, which featured videos for all the songs from his second album, directed by the asshole Doros. Pretty weird.
